The happy life of a farmer's little winemaker

Chapter 18 Grapes are delicious and wine is more fragrant

"Xiang'er, is it wine in this jar?"

In the mud room where the Lv family put the sundries, Lv Hong moved out the big jar in the corner little by little, but Lv Erniang frowned at the big jar. Instead of blaming Lv Xianger for secretly brewing wine, she fantasized about the scene when Lv Xianger made wine, which was a little distressed. Lv Xianger is only five years old and doesn't have much meat on her body, but this jar is about to catch up with her. It can be imagined that Lv Xianger looked difficult when brewing wine.

Lv Hong didn't think of anything else. He was completely attracted by the looming fragrance when he moved the altar. When Lv Hong lived with Lv Erniang in Qianzhou, he also went to the Piaoxiang Winery operated by Lv Tai, which also had a lot of fruit-brewed wine. But the aroma of some cider is completely comparable to the aroma in this jar.

Seeing that Lv Hong had removed the jar, Lv Xianger went to the side of the jar, untied the cloth on it, and opened the mud at the mouth of the altar. Suddenly, a strong fragrance rushed to the face, quickly overflowing the whole mud house and drifting out.

"It smells good." Lv Hong and Lv Er Niang had never smelled such an fragrance, and they couldn't help taking a step forward. However, Lv Xianger had already held a small bowl and scooped out half a bowl in the jar. Although the quality of this small bowl is not so good, the ** in this bowl is so red and bright.

At this time, Lv Xianger was attracted by the color of the wine and completely forgot that Lv Er Niang and Lv Hong were still standing next to her. She brought the bowl to her mouth and gently took a sip. As the aroma of wine spread in Lv Xianger's mouth, she narrowed her eyes with pleasure and looked satisfied.

Seeing Lv Xianger's appearance, Lv Erniang shook her head and just wanted to say, 'You really look like your father'. Lv Hong, who couldn't wait on the other side, also took two small bowls and filled two bowls. While handing it to Lv Erniang, Lv Hong lowered his head and was ready to drink. Lv Erniang smiled gently, brought the small bowl to her mouth and took a sip.

"It's delicious. This wine tastes better than the cider brewed by my uncle. Lv Hong drank the bowl and took another big sip. As soon as Lv Xianger opened her eyes, she saw Lv Hong and said quickly, "Brother, although the wine tastes light, the wine is strong. Don't drink too much..."

"Xiang'er, leave him alone. Every time your brother goes to the Piaoxiang Winery, he is asked to feed your father a bowl of cider. Lv Erniang also drank a lot of wine, but it was the first time she tasted this fragrant wine. If it hadn't been for the reserved support of her elders, Lv Erniang would have wanted another bowl.

Lv Xianger looked at Lv Hong and Lv Er Niang was a little embarrassed. I didn't expect that the Lv family, who ran wine, were all good drinkers, and even children had never been in it. However, not to mention that the wine made from ancient grapes is really fragrant. Lv Xianger couldn't help drinking another bowl.

When Lv Xianger wanted to hold the third bowl, Lv Er Niang's hand stretched out: "Xiang'er, my mother knows that you have been fed wine by your father since you were a child. However, you are still too young now. Don't drink so much.

"So that's how I came here when I was a child." Lv Xianger was a little stunned. She didn't know what Lu Tai thought. She had given her daughter a drink since she was a child. No wonder as soon as she smelled the smell of wine, her stomach screamed. Lv Xianger thought she wanted the red wine of her previous life too much, but she didn't expect that the real reason was here.

After saying that, Lv Xianger grabbed Lv Hong's bowl again and said, "Don't drink it. If you want to drink it at dinner, you can drink it later."

Originally, he was a little unwilling to hear that Lv Hong was not allowed to drink, but when he heard the second half of Lv Erniang's words, his eyes immediately lit up. Looking at Lv Erniang carefully sealing the wine jar, Lv Hong remembered that his mother was also a good drinker. When he was in Qianzhou, he saw Lv Erniang drink a pot of wine, and there was nothing to do. He also cut new clothes for him.

Put the wine jar back in place, Lv Hong took a reluctant look, and then took Lv Xianger's hand out of the mud room. Back in the main room, as soon as Lv Hong did it, he felt that his whole body was weak and his head was much heavier. Then it didn't take long for Lv Xianger to shake a little in his eyes, and finally became two or three.

"Xiang'er, this wine is sweet, and the wine is really strong." After saying this, Lv Hong could no longer resist the strong sleepiness and closed his eyes and fell asleep.

After Lv Erniang entered the house, she saw that Lv Hong had snored, but Lv Xianger's little face was embroidered with purses. Seeing this scene, Lv Erniang seemed to see herself just after leaving. At that time, after drinking wine every day, she made clothes for Lv Hong in her mood.

Sometimes I think about it, Lv Xianger's niece is really similar to Lv Erniang's aunt. Lu Erniang is very proud and happy about this. However, she doesn't want Lv Xianger to divorce in the future after marrying someone like her.

Thinking of this, Lv Erniang immediately went to Lv Xianger and sat down and said softly, "Xiang'er, you know that you have experienced too many things at a young age, and you are very thoughtful, just like a seven- or eight-year-old child. But my mother wants you to live a happy life. Can you tell me, how do you think of making wine?

Although Lv Xianger was embroidering a purse, she thought more clearly of life in Qianzhou because she drank wine. After hearing Lv Erniang's words, she put the needle and thread in her hand aside, threw herself into Lv Erniang's arms, and said sullenly:

"Mother, Xiang'er originally wanted to sell wine to make money. She asked her mother to count money until she had cramps every day, and let her brother sleep until she woke up naturally every day. But when A Niang mentioned that A Niang ate grapes, Xiang'er remembered a lot of things in the past. Now Xiang'er really wants to rebuild the Piaoxiang Winery and let people in the Zhou Dynasty drink the wine of Piaoxiang Winery.

When Lv Er Niang heard Lv Xianger's words, she knew it in her heart. Thinking of the identity of the daughter of her businessman, she was not valued by her mother-in-law after getting married, and she ignored her wife and did such a thing. Lv Erniang didn't want to let the only bloodline of the Lu family have her own ending, and she really wanted to persuade Lv Xianger to change this idea.

But when Lv Erniang lowered her head, she saw that Lv Xianger was asleep and couldn't help sighing: "It's okay, Xiang'er is still young, and there is still time for her to change her mind. The status of a businessman is so low, how can a girl get married? Alas..."

Lv Xianger didn't know what Lv Er Niang was thinking and slept beautifully. In fact, Lu Xianger didn't want to wake up, because she was dreaming. But Lv Hong took a chicken hand and kept scratching on Lv Xianger's eyes. Lv Xianger could only sit up angrily.

Seeing that Lv Xianger was angry, Lv Hong quickly smiled and said, "Xianger, the sun outside is not so poisonous. Will you take you up the mountain to play?"

"Up the mountain?" Going up the mountain for no reason, Lv Xianger looked up and down at Lv Hong and suddenly thought of something. Only then did he understand the purpose of Lv Hong's desire to go up the mountain, so he said maliciously, "Brother, do you want to pick grapes?"

"Yes. I haven't eaten it for many years. My brother wants to pick some for my mother. Lv Hong smiled and didn't want to admit that he was also greedy, but urged, "Xiang'er, can you go or not? If you don't go, I'll go by myself."

"Go, why don't you go?" Lv Xianger immediately got up, put on her shoes and followed Lv Hong out.

After telling Lv Erniang to make her own wine, Lv Xianger wanted to make more and drink it slowly. This grape is not available all year round. It is better to take advantage of this ripe season to pick more grapes. You should know that the better the grapes, the better the wine.

Moreover, Lv Xianger also wants to take advantage of the current wine to mature her skills. In this way, when Lv Xianger is older, she can make wine and sell it. After accumulating enough capital, Lv Xianger can rebuild the Piaoxiang Winery. In addition to the secret recipe for brewing wine left by Lv Tai, Lv Xianger also knows that the distillation process has not yet appeared in the Zhou Dynasty.

"I giggled again, the grapes are so delicious?" Lv Hong especially likes to watch Lv Xianger smile. As long as she smiles, Lv Hong is also very happy.

Lv Xianger wrinkled her nose and said, "It's not that you haven't drunk wine. Let me tell you, only when the grapes are delicious can the wine be more fragrant.
